!. The old protestant" church build
ing, corner Church and Pearl. ought to bt
torn down and better building put VI
in its place. The thing will fall shortly
if not torn down. A citizen passing
along the street to-day noticed one of the
officers posters relating to the cows
"Well," said he, that's the way, elect
them to the Council, and they begin to
get smart right away" The joke is, the
Council had nothing to do with IT,.
Thomas Stewart has new house about

the old foundry site.
SUNDAY.-The feature of to-day was
the Temperance speech by Hon. II. S.
Bundy at the rink tonight. The room
was alittle warm but the speaker stood
up to his work heroically. 1t is always a
pleasure to hear Mr.. Bundy talk tenn
erance, for he has been aconsistent
temperance man in his personal hab-
its. The speech tonight was in Bum
dy's usual happy vein, full of good things.
The crowd and the speaker were old
friends and it was pleasant meeting and
talking together. We have known Mr..
Bundy all our life, and never met a man
who came nearer our ideal of man cal
culated to do good in the world and enjoy
it at the same time. We shall always re-
member 81. S. Bundy as one of the men
whose lives have made an impress for orig
inality of manner, and nobility of pur-
pose; Mr.. Bundy was followed to-
night by a gentleman named Guy, who
spoke but a short time. -. Rev. J. A.
Lytle preached a sermon to-day to the
Soldiers, as well as others. The boys
were highly pleased by the treatment of
the good people of the Christian church.
The sermon was good, and the young
minister may well feel proud of his effort.
A full choir of stalwart men and beauti-
full ladies was on hand and furnished
good music.
MoNDAY.-In company with Hon. G.
M, SaltZgaber. John L. Jones and S. V.
Hinkle we went down into the Star
Mine this morning. Mr.. Henry Price
had tIain prepaded for US, and we en-
joyed the dark ride through the length |
of the mine. This is perhaps one of the
best mines in the country. The air is as
pure as it is on top of the ground. Every |
precaution is taken to avoid every posi-
BILE danger, and the workers in this mine |
may feel that they are perfectly safe.
Mr.. Price is practical engineer, making
a study of the Goals, geological forma-
tions, &c, and gives great attention to
keeping this mine in the very front rank
of mines. The party were shown many
curious formations in the strata of the
mine, and are under many obligations to
Mr.. Price and to the engineer at the
shaft, Mr.. J. Fl. Cochran, for kindness
shown. Mr.. Prices mine has stood the
test at all times as one of the best Mr.
Price is proud of his mine, and well he
may be. We found at work in one of the
rooms, Mr.. David Randall, one of the
most intelligent of our miners, who took
pains to explain the manner of min
ing, SC.
TUEsDAY.-The Creamery is now ready
for work. The engine was stated to-day,
and every thing is in proper shape for i'm
mediate beginning. ...,.. The nail mill
lots are still being sold, we understand,
but not so fast as was expected. If the
mill is built on this plan, things should be
hurried up. Jackson is to have gas
works shortly.
